Invasive milfoil and algal blooms have created a crisis on Androscoggin Lake. If not addressed, the spread of milfoil will upset the lake’s ecological balance and impact all activities on Androscoggin. The algal blooms, which turn the lake pea-soup green and make it unusable, can be toxic to people, pets, and wildlife.
30 Mile and Androscoggin Lake Improvement Corporation have partnered to raise $150K to fund a three-year intensive effort to address these urgent threats and restore the health of the lake. To date, many generous landowners and lake lovers have stepped up to contribute over $100K toward this goal. To make a gift to this campaign today, visit our webpage.
